Mr. Morgan und Mr. Bacon arrived in Washington about 10 p. m. in a special cmover the Baltimore and Ohio road and drove at once to the Arlington hotel.

On their arrival the Choctaw council wan permitted to enter the building and resume its sessions. The otllciul dispatches received show that the vote of the council for the ofllce of principal chief (governor) was counted. Green McCurtaln had a majority of C180 and was duly sworn In. Agent Scboenfeld wires that the presence of troops prevented a clash between contending factions and that be now anticipates no further trouble. All the armed men in the Choctaw capltol or capltol grounds have been disarmed or removed by the troops. Ashtabula. Ohio, Oct. 14.—The steamer C. B. Lockwood went down last evening In a gale on Lake Erie, at a point 15 miles west of this city. A yawl containing seven men, Including Captain of Bay City, Mich., was picked up this morning by a passing steamer. The men were out on the lake all night and experienced terrible suffering. Another yawl containing ten men Is missing. The managers of the different coal properties comprising the anthracite coalfields wish their position In the present strike to be understood and therefore make the following statement of fucts: cans.

Commission of l ive Men There are in the anthracite regions about seventy-five operating companies and firms and 147,000 miners and workmen, of which 30,000 are under age, comprising some twenty nationalities and dialects.Four Americans were present und occupied places of honor, Mr. Choate sitting at the king's right and General Corbln to the left. Lord Farquliar, master of the household, who sat at the end of the table opposite the king, had on his right General Young and on his left General Wood. Lord Kitchener sat next to General Corbln and W.-d Roberts next to Mr. Clioate. At 3c a dozen, good pearl buttons, all sizes To be Named. Of these workmen possibly one-half belong to the United Mine Workers' union, of which Mr. John Mitchell is president. That organization was originally formed In the bituminous coal region, and threefourths of its members are miners of bituminous coal, and bituminous coal is sold in active competition with anthracite coal. The remaining workmen in the anthracite fields either belong to no union whatever or do not belong to the mine workers' union. They remained with the president until ten minutes of 12 o'clock and then came downstairs. Secretary Root's face was beaming, and, nlthoug)i he would say nothing as to the conference except that Mr. Cortelyou would give the presB a statement later, he .—tuned so satisfied that those who saw him believed that good progress had been made toward a settlement of the great question which has been giving the administration so much concern. The three gentlemen, on leaving the temporary White House, went to the Metropolitan clul), where they remained in conversation until a late hour, while the president retired Immediately to secure some needed rest. YELLOWS AND REDS RECONCILED At 15c each, a new lot of ladies' •fancy belts Valenciennes Miners Settle Factional McCurtain also wired that by instructions of Dukes the latter's armed light horsemen posted in the eapitol ordered many members and council officers from the building. "Tile horsemen," he added, "arc appointees and bitter partisans of Dukes, with whom Marshal Ilaekett and deputies are cooperating. Openly stated, Dukes' purpose is to combine these conditions and prevent the counting of vote for chief until expiration of time fixed by law and thus continue himself in office." Paris, Oct. 14.—Telegrams which have been received here from Valenciennes state that the yellow and red factions of the striking miners have settled their differences and that there is now a complete stoppage of work at the mines in the Nord and Pas De Calais districts. The Reds among the miners favor a continuance of the strike, while the Yellow element has heretofore been lukewarm, and in some cases against strike. Differences—All Mines Idle. At lOo each, fancy cushion' cords CHARACTER OF THE COMMISSION People's Store, Others at the tuble Included Lord Suffiehl, Sir Hlgliton-Probyn, Lord Kuollys (better known as Sir Frederick Knollys, the king's private secretary), Captain Frederick Grey I'onsonby, Colonel Ward, General Kelly-Kenny and General Ion Hamilton. The present strike was declared by the mine workers' union on the 10th day of May, 1902. Since that time many workmen not belonging to or not willing to follow that organization were working in and about the mines. 17,000 to 20,000 are now at work. Many more have wished to work, but huve been prevented by a course of violence and intimidation toward these working and toward their families, accompanied by the destruction of property and the fear of death or bodily harm to every man who wishes to exercise his right to work. 15 South Main St., Pittston.

Tli proposition of the coal operators was a result of the visit of Secretary ltoot to New York and his conference with Mr. Morgan on Saturday: Mr. Morgan at that time expressed a keen interest in the situation and a desire to bring about an adjustment If possible. Following .this talk with Secretary ltoot there was a conference in New York today at which the proposition of .the coal operators was agreed to, and Mr. Morgan was delegated to bring it to the president in the belief that Such would be the courteous course and the best way of promulgating the offer of settlement.

This violence has continued and steadily increased notwithstanding repeated disavowals by Mr. Mitchell, ant? it is clear that he hither cannot or will not prevent it and that the rights of the other workmen cannot be protectedunder the sapremacy ot the mine workers' union. The king received the guests in the drawing room on the first fioor, shaking hands and chatting most cordially with the Americans, who were presented by Mr. Clioate. When lunch was the king led the wuy to the dining room, overlooking the mall, with Mr. Clioate, to whom and to General Corbln he paid marked attention during the meal, dividing most of bis conversation between them. Washington, Oct. 14.—Sir Michael Herbert, the new British embassador, has been presented to the president by Secretary Hay. The presentation took place at what is called the temporary White House, on Jackson place, and this was probably the first occasion since the White House has been occupied as the presidential mansion that the credentials of an embassador or minister lia»e been received outside of Its doors. Albany, N. Y., Oct. 14.—The twenty - flrst annual meeting of the Protestant Episcopal Church Congress of the United States opened with a public choral service in the Cathedral of All Saints at 10.30 this morning.

Instead of calling at the state department first, which Is the usual course, the embassador proceeded directly to the temporary White House, with the full staff of the embassy In their diplomatic uniforms. Secretary Hay, meeting him at this point, presented him to President Iloosevelt in the parlor, on the second floor of the house. The presentation was made In the usual form, with the important exception that the president, though progressing rapidly toward recovery, heeded his physicians' warniug and remained seated, not undertaking to stand on his wounded leg. it is No Recession—Coal Presidents Meet This Afternoon, FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

Aged Pauper Inherits $17,000,000 From * New York, Oct. 14.—The general fj-'v* opinion here Is that the proposition of the coal presidents, made last night, will speedily end the anthracite strike. 1 There may be some fencing on the part of the labor leaders to have a rep-1 resentative of labor on tile arbitration board, but public belief is that any board appointed by the President, though it may be on the lines suggested by the operators, will be eminently fair to both sides and tlmt the miners will realize this and accept the proposal.

Philadelphia Relative. Why Arbitration Wan Refuaed. It Is not, however, the purpose of this statement to discuss this question. The undersigned are not and never have been unwilling to submit all questions between them and their workmen to any fair tribunal for decision. They are not willing to enter into arbitration with the mine workers' union, an organization chiefly composed of men in a rival and competitive interest, and they are not willing to make any arrangement which will not secure to the men now working and all now or hereafter wishing to work, whether they belong to the mine workers' union or not. the right and opportunity to work in aafety and without personal Insult or bodily harm to themselves or their families. For these reasons the arbitrations heretofore proposed have been declined. St. Petersburg, Oct. 13.—The Herald today tells of another aged pauper suddenly made rich by inheritance. According to the paper, a pauper Jew named Judson, 80 years of age, an inmate in an almshouse at Warsaw, has inherited $17,000,000 from a relative in Philadelphia and has gone there to claim It.

He replied: "1 do not consider it In that light at all.

Asked as to the character of the proposal, he replied: "I consider the proposition unequivocal. We resolve that we have no right to question any appointment mlade on the commission by the President, If he appoints the commission. I don't knowi whether the President will confer with Presidcn Mitchell on this subject." President Baer, of the Reading, was asked If he considered the proposition a recession oif the' part of the operators. Baer laughed. "That's a funny one," he said. "I happened to draw up the proposition myself, or at least assisted in drawing it up. The statement embodies my opinions and Views." Further than this. \ you cannot expect me to say any'.)thing." President Oliphant, of the Delaware and Hudson, made this iniport-4 ant statement, in answer to u question whether he considered the latest proposal of the operators a concession to the miners: "It is not a concession to the miners. It is a concession to humanity. It is a move directed to re■jBore. the distress prevalent in the country.

Commission of l ive Men There are in the anthracite regions about seventy-five operating companies and firms and 147,000 miners and workmen, of which 30,000 are under age, comprising some twenty nationalities and dialects.Four Americans were present und occupied places of honor, Mr. Choate sitting at the king's right and General Corbln to the left. Lord Farquliar, master of the household, who sat at the end of the table opposite the king, had on his right General Young and on his left General Wood. Lord Kitchener sat next to General Corbln and W.-d Roberts next to Mr. Clioate. At 3c a dozen, good pearl buttons, all sizes To be Named. Of these workmen possibly one-half belong to the United Mine Workers' union, of which Mr. John Mitchell is president. That organization was originally formed In the bituminous coal region, and threefourths of its members are miners of bituminous coal, and bituminous coal is sold in active competition with anthracite coal. The remaining workmen in the anthracite fields either belong to no union whatever or do not belong to the mine workers' union. They remained with the president until ten minutes of 12 o'clock and then came downstairs. Secretary Root's face was beaming, and, nlthoug)i he would say nothing as to the conference except that Mr. Cortelyou would give the presB a statement later, he .—tuned so satisfied that those who saw him believed that good progress had been made toward a settlement of the great question which has been giving the administration so much concern.

Openly stated, Dukes' purpose is to combine these conditions and prevent the counting of vote for chief until expiration of time fixed by law and thus continue himself in office." Paris, Oct. 14.—Telegrams which have been received here from Valenciennes state that the yellow and red factions of the striking miners have settled their differences and that there is now a complete stoppage of work at the mines in the Nord and Pas De Calais districts. The Reds among the miners favor a continuance of the strike, while the Yellow element has heretofore been lukewarm, and in some cases against strike. Differences—All Mines Idle.

The present strike was declared by the mine workers' union on the 10th day of May, 1902. Since that time many workmen not belonging to or not willing to follow that organization were working in and about the mines. 17,000 to 20,000 are now at work. Many more have wished to work, but huve been prevented by a course of violence and intimidation toward these working and toward their families, accompanied by the destruction of property and the fear of death or bodily harm to every man who wishes to exercise his right to work. 15 South Main St., Pittston.

The undersigned are not and never have been unwilling to submit all questions between them and their workmen to any fair tribunal for decision. They are not willing to enter into arbitration with the mine workers' union, an organization chiefly composed of men in a rival and competitive interest, and they are not willing to make any arrangement which will not secure to the men now working and all now or hereafter wishing to work, whether they belong to the mine workers' union or not. the right and opportunity to work in aafety and without personal Insult or bodily harm to themselves or their families. For these reasons the arbitrations heretofore proposed have been declined. St. Petersburg, Oct. 13.—The Herald today tells of another aged pauper suddenly made rich by inheritance.

Asked as to the character of the proposal, he replied: "I consider the proposition unequivocal. We resolve that we have no right to question any appointment mlade on the commission by the President, If he appoints the commission. I don't knowi whether the President will confer with Presidcn Mitchell on this subject." President Baer, of the Reading, was asked If he considered the proposition a recession oif the' part of the operators. Baer laughed. "That's a funny one," he said. "I happened to draw up the proposition myself, or at least assisted in drawing it up. The statement embodies my opinions and Views." Further than this. \ you cannot expect me to say any'.)thing." President Oliphant, of the Delaware and Hudson, made this iniport-4 ant statement, in answer to u question whether he considered the latest proposal of the operators a concession to the miners: "It is not a concession to the miners. It is a concession to humanity. It is a move directed to re■jBore. the distress prevalent in the country.
